Faith vs. Communism Bundle
Featuring Works by Paul Kengor, Steven Mosher, and Mary Nicholas · Published by TAN Books
Overview
The struggle against Communism is not merely a battle of economics or geopolitics—it is a war for the human soul. The Faith vs. Communism Bundle brings together three of the most definitive works on the spiritual reality of the "Long March." From the dark poetic admissions of Karl Marx himself to the systematic persecution of Christians in modern China and the dramatic conversion of a former American Communist leader, this bundle unmasks the diabolical engine driving atheistic totalitarianism. By examining the history, the ideology, and the personal testimony of those who fought in the shadows, these volumes equip the faithful to recognize and resist the subtle infiltrations of radical ideologies in our contemporary culture, families, and Church.
